Information on eye shape of shallow-water teleosts is sparse in the literature [ 17, 22], in spite of the potential for adaptive modifications at this level of design, as suggested by the extensive research efforts undertaken on the ecomorphology of the chambered eyes of terrestrial amniotes in the last decade [ 23- 27].
Hydraulic and mechanical constraints can be seen as coupled functions and, to a large extent, physiological compromises that have to be met for adaptive modification of the plant body.
However, some findings suggested the need for adaptive modification of both treatment prescriptions and monitoring protocols: treatments did not promote heterogeneity of stand structure, and monitoring methods may not have been robust enough to detect changes in surface fuels.
Thus, the surface of PLA2s forms a scaffold for adaptive modification that has been used to generate a diverse array of pharmacological effects through a process of neofunctionalization (the generation of new protein functions that were not the primary function of the ancestral protein).
Multiarmed selection designs have been proposed (e.g. Thall et al., 1988, 1988) and have been extended to allowing for adaptive design modifications (Bauer and Kieser, 1999; Koenig et al., 2008; Bretz et al., 2009; Bebu et al., 2013; Sugitani et al., 2013).
Empowerment evaluation methods such as GTO, with their emphasis on accountability, ownership and self-determination can provide systematic guidance for providers to evaluate implementation of standard care processes and to make selective adaptive modifications for individual patient needs.
Each of these PI/PD controllers implements a supervisory static FLC for adaptive online modification of the output scaling factor (SF) of a static PI/PD FLC.
These modifications tend to decrease the capacity for adaptive responsiveness and wound healing, and therefore enhance its susceptibility to disorders and death.
Because the genetic modifications necessary for eliciting tolerance are difficult to predict, techniques involving genome-scale modifications and adaptive evolution are frequently used.
Last year, the Los Angeles Business Journal gave the Church an award for adaptive reuse.
